Carbon Fiber BMW Steering Wheel Emblem

Has anyone attempted to change their steering wheel emblem? How complicated is it? I ran across this on Amazon and am thinking about getting it. They also have emblems for the hood, tailgate, and wheels.

As Lotus pointed out, you can't remove the steering wheel emblem because of the airbag.

You could try this though......

Thanks for the info. Now I think that I won't replace the exterior emblems, and won't attempt to remove the steering wheel's emblem.

removing the exterior emblems is very easy..u can use dental floss to get under the emblem and then lift gently..emblem has 2 pins behind once the emblem is lifted u can use ur fingers to pull it off
